This test runs with 2 different defaults, and gets the default value both times since we send back a nullish value in OFREP

Send back a value=null, variant=null and reason=DEFAULT, this is my preferred proposal for implementing a "defer to code default" evaluation in flagd. I think this would be non-breaking for other implementations.

Would we need to send a variant at all?
